Champ select trolls ruin the game for you before it starts

and there's still no way to properly report it, and nothing seems to be being done about it. More often than not you're the one who takes the dodge penalty for it too. Why can't we report in champ select?

the only champ select "troll" is the player who steals your champion and then doesnt swap it with you or bans your champion and then tells you they didnt want you playing that champion.

there are the champ select griefers that end up upset over the trolls and then intentionally lock something they think will hurt the team while declaring that theyre locking in champion to try and hurt the team - usually the conversation goes "blame _______ for ____ i'm going _ anyway"

then there are the lane thieves who purposely steal someone's lane and tries to force them to go to a different lane even though lanes are assigned.


it's not trolling if the player trades you the champ or actually wants to play the champ, chooses an unusual champ for a lane.

it is still negative behavior to be afk whether that is physically or mentally. pay attention guy. accidentally banning your teammates champion or accidentally neglecting your lane is still negative behavior.

And yet nothing is done to fix or alleviate this problem.

Either dodge or take a loss after wasting time.

And apparently lobby chat isn't even logged into reports. Great! Even worse, if I play out the game, I am usually so over it I forget to report. Then when I remember I just say what a stupid report system. Why can't I report from match history instead of that small period where I just want to leave that entire team. (I know about manual report but not how to do it).

if you dodge you're guaranteed to lose LP. if you play you can report that person and possibly win.

Lol, but if they are not trying it is just stupid.

I agree I will often try anyways, but recently I had a game where someone didn't lie and actually inted. And in the past I have many times forgotten to report at the end of game because I just want to get out of that group.

You forgot to mention the players who are tilted, but still want to play another game with the same champion that haven't won a Ranked game with. lol

I just experienced a game, where there were two individuals who wanted to duo top. I told them I did not agree cause it would mean an enemy player will just have free reign. They were completely rude, and both of them ganged up to verbally harass me. They literally almost tilted me because after the verbal assault, one of them lied about going jg during champ select. They literally selected smite, so I believed them, and then last few seconds they changed it to a heal to duo top. There needs to be a report function during champ selection or, if not, some sort of punishment option before the game starts!
